Descriptive Information

Brief Title ICMJE

Transversus Abdominal Plane Block at Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy: Effect on Quality of Recovery

Official Title ICMJE

Randomized Trial of Transversus Abdominal Plane (TAP) Block at Total Laparoscopic Hysterectomy: Effect of Regional Analgesia on Quality of Recovery

Brief Summary

The Transversus Abdominal Plane (TAP) block has been used with good success to decrease postoperative pain following laparatomy. If the TAP block provides any improvement in the quality of recovery following laparoscopic hysterectomy, it could decrease the need for postoperative narcotics and allow for more outpatient hysterectomy procedures.
